That time a guest post I paid for got pulled after 3 days
I paid a site $150 for a guest post back in February. Three days later it was gone. The site owner said Google flagged it as spam and he pulled it himself. No refund, no warning. Has anyone else had a paid placement disappear like that? I'm starting to think most of these link sellers are just taking our money and running.

Nah, that's on you for not vetting the site first.

Point is fine in theory but where's the line between not vetting enough and just bad luck with a site that looked legit? I've been burned by places that had polished layouts and decent reviews on Trustpilot that turned out to be fakes. You can only dig so deep before you're just hoping the checkout button doesn't lead to a scam. At some point the responsibility has to be shared with the platform hosting the marketplace, right?
